There's just a whole lot of stuff out there to support that increased time out of water, increased stress, etc. lowers the survivability of a to be released fish. For primary research stuff, a few of the front line researchers are:
Cory Suski
Andy Danylchuk
Rudy Lukocovic
and a whole bunch more

A good readable summary of information found by Cory Suski's research can be found here:

I think this Science Daily article summarizes it pretty good and is based upon the primary research.
A good basic outline for C&R guidelines based on actual research can be found here:
